Examples
curl
curl https://xoomar.com/api/markets/funding-rates
Python
import requests
r = requests.get("https://xoomar.com/api/markets/funding-rates")
data = r.json()["data"]
for row in data:
print(f"{row['baseAsset']} {row['exchange']}: {row['fundingRate']}")JavaScript
const res = await fetch("https://xoomar.com/api/markets/funding-rates");
const { data } = await res.json();
console.log(data);Limits
- Snapshots update every 60 seconds. This is NOT tick-level data.
- Settled funding history starts in 2019 for the major pairs on Binance.
- Not suitable for HFT or sub-second strategies.
- 10 requests a minute without a key, 30 with a free key.
Main features
- Live funding rates for every tracked perpetual on five venues, updated every 60 seconds; each row carries the rate as published, the settlement interval in hours, the 8-hour equivalent and the annualized figure.
- Cross-venue comparison in one call: the same coin's rate on every venue side by side (use fundingRate8h to compare hourly and 8-hour venues).
- Settled funding history on the per-symbol endpoint, up to 5,000 settlements a call.
- Mark price, 24h price change, open interest and next funding time in the same row, so one request fills a dashboard widget.

What people build with it
Cross-venue spread monitors
Compare the same coin's 8-hour-equivalent rate across the five venues and alert when the gap passes your own level.
Carry dashboards
Rank coins by annualized funding per venue; fundingAnnualized is in every row.
Research charts
Chart funding against your own price data to see when longs or shorts paid to hold their positions.
Bot inputs
MT4 and MT5 EAs and Python bots read the current rate and the next funding time before they act.
Fair use
No key needed to start. A 429 response carries a Retry-After header in seconds; cache responses on your side where you can. Need more volume? Write to info@xoomar.com.
Response shape
Every endpoint returns the same JSON envelope: { data, updatedAt, source, docs, license, attribution, meta }. In meta, source names who publishes the data and sourceAttribution is the credit line to show with it. The data field is an array of records with these fields:
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| slug | string | Symbol slug used in URLs (btc, eth, sol...) |
| baseAsset | string | Base asset ticker (BTC, ETH...) |
| exchange | string | binance, bybit, okx, hyperliquid or kraken |
| markPrice | string | null | Latest mark price in USD |
| fundingRate | string | null | Current funding rate as published, a decimal per settlement interval (0.0001 = 0.01% per interval) |
| fundingIntervalHours | number | Hours per settlement: 8 (Binance, Bybit, OKX) or 1 (Hyperliquid, Kraken) |
| fundingRate8h | number | null | The rate scaled to eight hours, comparable across venues |
| fundingAnnualized | number | null | Annualized rate, simple (not compounded), from the rate and its funding interval |
| nextFundingTime | string | null | ISO timestamp of the next funding settlement |
| openInterest | string | null | Open interest in contracts |
| openInterestValue | string | null | Open interest notional in USD |
| priceChangePct24h | string | null | 24h price change as a decimal |
| longShortRatio | string | null | Global long/short account ratio where the venue publishes it, else null |
One row per symbol per exchange. The per-symbol endpoint /api/markets/funding-rates/{slug} returns { current, history }; history is null unless you pass history=30d, 1y or all, and holds up to 5,000 settlements, newest first.
Numeric fields typed string in the table carry exact decimals; parse them with your language's decimal type. No key needed to start: 10 requests a minute per IP without a key and 30 a minute with a free account key, with at least six months of history. A 429 response carries a Retry-After header in seconds. Credit XOOMAR with a link to the dataset page when you republish the data; the data terms are on the terms page.
A free account key raises the limit; send it in an X-API-Key header.
